Are you saying BHO is being held at gunpoint to finish the job the way Kinski was on that film? It seems like the situation is more reversed wherein BHO has us in his sights.

Mon, 16 Jan 2012 19:13:02 +0000http://hotair.com/?p=174887#comment-5315305Hot Air is (of course) correct. The first bill Obama signed into law did not require equal pay for equal work. That legislation has been on the books since the 1960s. The bill Obama signed, the incorrectly-named “Lilly Ledbetter Fair Pay Act,” merely extended by 180 days the statute of limitations for filing a claim of pay discrimination based on gender.

From The Obama Timeline:

Ledbetter, who had worked 19 years for Goodyear Tire and Rubber in Alabama, earned less than her male co-workers did. After she retired, she decided to sue Goodyear, which correctly argued that the statute of limitations had run out. The Supreme Court properly ruled in Goodyear’s favor. The court did not address the issue of whether there had been discrimination. Goodyear argued there had not, and submitted Ledbetter’s substandard performance appraisals to support its case. After the bill signing ceremony, Michelle Obama remarks that Ledbetter “…knew unfairness when she saw it, and was willing to do something about it because it was the right thing to do”—when in fact Ledbetter took no action for 19 years.

However, what makes it weak at first glance is the idea that you know he is referring to daughters and sons in general, not specifically his family. And then his choice of words comes across as conscripting all American children as HIS, which betrays his unmitigated, innate narcissism. He sincerely believes that, because he is the current occupant of the Oval Office, then all citizens belong to him. Well, I’m sure the same can be said of any dictator, of any emperor, of any tyrant. He is Teh Won, all others are his subjects, loyal or not.

The nation, and the world, cannot afford four more years of movement in this direction.

one reason i avoid this obamatourism posts is that they can become an hivemind for obama hatred

Or maybe because you don’t know how to use capitalization or punctuation?

Mon, 16 Jan 2012 17:57:01 +0000http://hotair.com/?p=174887#comment-5314952Give us a break, Obama trots out his kids for photo ops at every opportunity. He talks about opportunity but sends his kids to the most exclusive school. That was one thing that Carter could be respected for; he sent his children to public school.

Obama is an empty suit who can’t even get the words on the teleprompter right.

Of course, one would also think that Obama would know better than to claim to have sons in an attempt to underscore one of his political arguments.

How many Unicorns does he have?

Otherwise it looks like 3 measures of arrogance, 2 measures of stupidity, and a dash of incompetence.

Nathor, perhaps…perhaps…but here’s the deal. Not all lies or all liars are equal. Nor are all politicians pathological in their lies. Most politicians lie sometimes, but Obama lies all the time. All…the…time. Most politician’s lies don’t amount to anything. They’re just talking points or the party line. Obama’s lies…as the President of the United States…amount to a LOT. Because he is President, his lies are taken as truth and repeated as truth. See? So you can’t just say, “Oh, they all do it.” As President, his multitude of lies have consequence. Make sense?

Naaaaaaa …
He was an affirmative action foreign exchange student.
For the most “transparent” Administration evah, Barry won’t even release his college transcripts. I have – repeatedly and am proud to do so if a prospective employer should inquire. Being self-employed cancels that out.
American voters have a much lower threshold for competence.
The collective guilt of Americans for all of history’s ills is nauseating.

It is a completely unforced error, coming out of a combination of arrogance, ignorance, and just plain not paying attention.
